Day 1
Check Your Engine Oil
Check the engine oil using the procedure in your owner's manual. Low oil can cause serious engine damage.
Day 2
Don't Ignore Warning Lights
A dashboard warning light is a request for attention. Investigate it early rather than waiting for a breakdown.
Day 3
Know Your Emergency Tools
Know where your jack, wheel spanner, spare tyre and emergency equipment are before you need them.
Day 4
Inspect Your Tyres
Look for cuts, cracks, bulges and abnormal wear. Unsafe tyres should be replaced promptly.
Day 5
Check Tyre Pressure
Check pressure when tyres are cold and use the vehicle manufacturer's recommended pressure.
Day 6
Protect Your Tyres
Avoid driving on severely worn or damaged tyres. Tyres are critical to braking and road grip.
Day 7
Test Your Brake Lights
Make sure your brake lights work so drivers behind you can see when you slow down.
Day 8
Check Your Headlights
Clean and test headlights regularly. Good lighting improves visibility at night and helps others see you.
Day 9
Clean Your Windscreen
A dirty windscreen can reduce visibility, especially at night or during rain.
Day 10
Replace Worn Wipers
Replace wiper blades when they streak, chatter or fail to clear water properly.
Day 11
Check Coolant Safely
Check the coolant level only when the engine is cool and use the specified coolant.
Day 12
Never Open a Hot Radiator
A hot cooling system can be pressurized. Allow it to cool before opening or inspecting it.
